Better hold that thought until you get the (new) correct numbers for Court Death. I think they may improve player perception, to put it mildly. As of the hotfix the self-team damage is down about 3.5 times.

Which is to say, as I've been chastised for in the hotfix thread, the old damage is (about) 3.5 times more than the new damage.

Cthulhu

True! I will download the new build and revise right now!

Cthulhu

Currently have a crash that is preventing me from getting the stats, will update as soon as it's fixed!

Edit: I'm wrong, and he's not mutliplying strike tiles. I'm just used a bad example, and incorrect math when testing this.

***

His purple appears to multiply the match damage due to strike tiles as well, not just the tile damage. It makes the power a lot more viable than it first seemed. Since he pairs well with the true healers such as Wolverine and Daken, who also almost all generate strike tiles, he's actually much better than he looks on paper.

Dormammu

With the most recent R117 hot fix update my level 166 5/3/5 Thanos' Court Death now deals 4077 damage to all enemies and 1043 to allies.

This guy just got a lot more usable.

Do the purples stack, I know you can put more than one out at a time. If they do that alone makes him very useful.

Jabrony_Geoff

Thank you and well done for fixing 3* THANOS.
He is now a welcome addition to the 3* ranks.

No, they don't stack that way.

Also, I want to reiterate down here that I was wrong about it effecting strike tiles. It really isn't that great a power after all

Cthulhu

Fixed his first power stats based on a debug build I'm playing. Let me know if you guys see anything different then what I posted.

Vhailorx

Are his original stats not going to be preserved on this page (behind a spoiler tag)?

Mr_Sinister

Elektra black can down an enemy, cause Thanos court death, and activate another black for Elektra. It just so happened the second Elektra activation killed the next target, starting court death again.

Jaedenkaal

Haha that's amazing

Doesn't quite feel the power from his and it too much of a chicken to maximize his
Still cool, using him with Patch and Rocket/Groot.

Max his black! the self damage now is fairly minimal if played with true healers, and this power makes him awesome for rolling over trivial nodes and seeds in 30 seconds or less.

Just don't be too quick.....

Do you recommend purple or green at 3, or both at 4?
I most often see myself using Patch's green rather than Thanos.

I, personally, recommend 5/3/5 on 3*Thanos and will do the same on my 5* version (when I have him max-covered by the year 2084.) The 5-cover damage on both his black and green are fantastic in either of their respective tiers.

I'd go along with that. The main benefit of Infinite Power, board "lock", can be had at any level. I'd also field arguments for 5/4/4 to get the 4-turn duration while still not giving up a lot of damage on green.

Thanos + 2 self healers is now my go to for the first 2, sometimes 3, PVE nodes. OML and Daken make for a great team if you have them. Anyway, it's good to respec him for the first couple and take his black down to 3 to reduce the self damage. The nodes are still over in 3-4 turns but you healers will be able to cope better.

3* Thanos doesn't lock the board with Infinite Power.

Most players will likely pair Thanos with self-healers because of the concerns of "Court Death" and self damage. We wanted to share an interesting alternative by incorporating Doc Strange.

This odd pair comes to the fight with two damaging passives. Thanos does team damage after a kill, but Doc's passive can undue some (if not all) of the self damage every time the enemy fires a power (or thug drops a countdown tile). Because of their passives, this duo frees up black and yellow AP for the third team member. This leads to some creative teams that can often double layer tank the good Doctor. Examples include:

w/ 2* Thor = HP Tank layers with available and to self synergism of green. Leaves you free to choose your choice of AOE
w/ 2* Ares = HP Tank layers with available AOE and Nuke. Leaves you free to choose your choice of AOE or Nuke
w/ 2* Wolvie = Available Nuke and true heal. Leaves you free to choose your choice of AOE or strike tiles
w/ 2* Bullseye = Available with passive

w/ 3* Thor / Wolvie SAA = HP Tank layers with available and to self synergism of green. Leaves you free to choose your choice of AOE
w/ 3* Rags = HP Tank layers with available cheap attack, self-heal, and blue AP generation for Doc's and charged tiles for Thanos
w/ 3* Cage = Available and for Luke Nukes with added red passive protection
w/ 3* Cyclops = All AP available for Cyc Nukes

Early 4 transition or using 5 Doc and Thanos
w/ 4* Marvel = Available and with passive . Both Thanos and Doc provide countdowns to strengthen her Strike tiles plus faster Thanos AOE
w/ 4* Electra = Available and ~ w/ 4*Thor Available with choice of
w/ 4* Moon = Passive available and choice of nuke or AOE

blablabla... You get the idea... Excellent enemy wave solutions.
